Playin' a lot of "catch-up" . . .

Wow, it has been so long since I have blogged, I don't even know where to start . . . since we've blogged last . . .

I attended a bridal shower for Anilisa's daughter . . .

Bob flew to St. Catherine, Ontario and back to pick up a helicopter

. . . he got to fly over Niagara Falls.

I had my annual "date" with Tristan . . . Wearable Arts 2011

Finally found a shirt to wear with one of my favorite,

made by my Grammy, sweater . . .

I attended a retreat and this Pope was freaky . . .

so we covered him up . . .

and turned him into a hammer-head . . .

much more pleasent to look at.



We celebrated the Super Bowl . . . with good eats . . .

Molly practiced walking in her new fancy dress shoes . . .

Our Girl Scout cookies arrived . . .

Our coffee table after a Friday night . . .

We have another snowfall . . .

Joelle came for a visit . . . and had to study, but we still got to have fun at Bullwinkles', thanks Joelle!

And that get's us all caught up.

A little bit o'sun

Today the sun was shining so we went out to Sunshine Cove to enjoy a bit of it . . .

Perfect Hair Day!!!

I made Bob take my picture this morning cuz my hair was perfect!

Today's free write . . .

The happiest moment in my life . . .

This was hard for me in the sense that I have so many moments in my life that have made me happy, and even happiest.  Unfortunately for some, they can't think of a single moment, how terribly sad.  My happiest moment . . . marrying my Bob.

Silly fun with Denise at Goofy's Candy Shop

GO TIGERS!!! - Seattle

A quiet morning at Auke Bay Harbor

Seriously, one of several porcupines 

that scared the be-jesus out of me this past year!

Ahhh, nothing like being "on top of the world" . . .

 . . . and looking to the horizon.

A man and his fish 

makes for a happy man 

and a full belly . . .

There isn't anything quite like a sunny day, relaxing at the end of a trail 

and taking in the view 

to remind us that are enjoying a blessed life.

What a sweet day this was . . . 

watching glacier's calving leaves you excited, giddy with laughter 

and no words that really express 

to others the wonder of the moment.

Bob and Joelle skipping rocks . . .

A hiking we will go . . .

Molly cooking, I know, a shocker! 

Notice the beautiful sweater? 

It was made by my Gram some . . .  years ago.  (Gram when you read this,

if you remember how many years ago,

I'll post it.)

There's always room in Molly's suitcase

for Mr. Bear.

All snuggled up in our Christmas jammies.

On the fifteenth day of Winter Break . . .

Happy New Year's Eve!

We rang in the new year with the Solomon family.

This is Bacon, the largest, sassiest, cleanest and softest cat that I have ever meet in my life!

One of the Solomon brothers, Zac and I.

The other brother, Shane and I.

Cheers!  Brittany and Kristen.

On the fourteenth day of Winter Break . . .

Since I stayed up late last night reading my book, the day started out with a bit of reading, then the condo was cleaned so that it didn't need to be some tomorrow.  Gonna start the New Year out with a clean house. 

Then on to a New Year's Eve celebration!

On the thirteenth day of Winter Break . . .

Today was the day to "hit the books".  I worked to try and finish up one class for about 8 hours, it was painful.  All of that work for 1 credit, but it's almost done!

On the twelfth day of Winter Break . . .

We started the day by reading in the dark with our booklights . . .

On the eleventh day of Winter Break . . .

We saw Gullivar's Travels . . .

Went on a Costco run where we bought some new fuzzy hangers . . . 

(which made lots more space in our closets - bonus!)

and got my new watch sized . . .

(no batteries or winding ever! - Bob did good)

On the tenth day of Winter Break . . .

we went to Home Depot for Bob to spend his gift card and buy some more tools.

On the ninth day of Winter Break . . .

just snuggled on the couch and read a good book.
